Forecasts

Gabbys Cross (3/1), Millen To One (4/1), Jacksons Gold (11/2), Legacy Thor (7/1), Presenting Meghan (7/1), Premium Package (15/2), Visionarian (8/1), Slige Dala (9/1), Max Flamingo (16/1), It Could Be You (18/1), She's All Vintage (25/1), The Little Yank (33/1)

Verdict

It could be worth chancing MILLEN TO ONE, who has been ultra-consistent in defeat of late and can gain his first victory with Jack Kennedy taking over for the first time. Gabbys Cross is seeking an impressive hat-trick but may have to settle for silver here, while Visionarian and Presenting Meghan could also feature in an open-looking contest.
